PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
The chief of staff was right, Luo Bicheng had just withdrawn from the artillery position to fight, he turned around and led the cavalry battalion to Xicheng again, a distance of twenty miles, without the drag of baggage, the cavalry battalion only needed half an hour to rush there.
Princeton's order had just been issued, and in less than a quarter of an hour, in the northwest direction, a violent explosion was already heard!
Princeton's heart was cold, broken, specially, he was unfortunately hit by the chief of staff, listening to the sound of this explosion, it was almost the same as the sound of the explosion coming from the artillery position when he had just been attacked! It was definitely the opposing cavalry that attacked again!
Yes, Luo Bicheng's cavalry is too fast, this is a flat river, which is the most conducive to the cavalry attack, and he rushed to the vicinity of the opponent's artillery position in half an hour, and then launched another attack towards the artillery position!
However, the main direction of attack of the Confederate army is Nancheng, and the offensive strength on the Xicheng side is not large, in the artillery position, there are actually two companies of troops guarding the safety of the artillery position, especially the movement in the south city has been transmitted back to Xicheng, although the deputy division commander of Xicheng Reeves does not know what happened in Nancheng, but he also knows that there is definitely a change, otherwise there will not be such a big movement on the position.
Reeves had to be careful and add an infantry company to the artillery position.
However, even with an increase in the strength of a company, preparations were made in advance. To no avail. After all, time is too short. What can you prepare for in just half an hour?
When the cavalry approached, the infantry company began to fire intensively, trying to stop the cavalry's advance, but the cavalry who were frantically rushing towards the ranks had reached a speed of more than forty kilometers per hour, and they were scattered. Even the sound of gunfire could not stop the onslaught of the cavalry's fierce advance!
In the blink of an eye, the cavalry had already rushed into the artillery position and began another round of slaughter, although the Confederate army was on guard, but more than 200 infantry faced the hand-to-hand combat of more than 400 cavalry, there was no way to resist, two infantry companies were successively defeated by the cavalry, and the entire artillery position was in chaos.
After all, the Confederate Army was only a Confederate Army, and the American army in this era was the weakest among the great powers. The ranks of the battle were inferior to those of the Russian army. Under the ravages of the cavalry, it was impossible to resist at all.
Reeves was already a little stunned in shock, when did the federal army come out with such a fierce and powerful army?
Reeves didn't have time to think about it, and roared: "Order, immediately mobilize the fourth regiment to participate in the battle, press me all up, and I must destroy this cavalry on the spot!" ”
The strength of a regiment, if the cavalry is really surrounded in the middle, under the rotation of shooting, the cavalry will definitely have no good fruit to eat, but now that the strength of a regiment is being mobilized, where can the cavalry be surrounded?
The cavalry battalion raged wildly on the artillery position, their main target was the twenty guns, one by one the cavalry threw the grenades in their hands out of their hands, and the artillery positions were blown up beyond recognition, not to mention the artillery, even the shells were detonated by violent explosions!
Reeves saw that his eyes were about to split, and he roared frantically: "Fourth Regiment, attack immediately, attack, you must annihilate them for me, and you won't let any of them go!" ”
The Fourth Regiment had just attacked, and the cavalry battalion had already completed its task and began to retreat, like a whirlwind, and flew away.
Blitzkrieg, like thunder, the dragon saw the head but not the tail, before the Confederate army understood, the cavalry had disappeared, killing one person in ten steps, and not leaving a thousand miles!
After the battle, the two artillery positions of the Confederate army were destroyed, no less than hundreds of enemy soldiers were seriously wounded, and the opponent was turned upside down, but the entire cavalry battalion only had dozens of wounded, and not a single one was killed in battle, what a miracle, a miracle!
Luo Bicheng roared excitedly, happy, too happy, what is this called, the adult gave himself a new word, non-contact war, before contacting the main force of the enemy, he has already completed the fatal blow to the enemy!
This battle will definitely make the Confederate army remember it for a lifetime!
The commander of a company on one side asked, "Battalion commander, what should we do now?" ”
Luo Bicheng sneered: "What should I do? Cold salad, now that the two artillery positions have been laid down, the tiger teeth of the southern rebels have been pulled out by us, what else is there to fear? Now they don't have the heart to think about revenge, what we have to do now is to concentrate our forces and stab the Federation in the back again, completely defeating the Federation Army! ”
After Luo Bicheng finished speaking, he shouted: "Order, the army will return to Nancheng immediately, now Chen Hai and Gao Qi have already fought with the main force of the federal army, what's the matter, let's also help the field!" ”
As he spoke, Luo Bicheng took the reins of his horse and rushed down in the southeast direction!
South City.
Princeton was completely stunned by the two smacks of the cavalry battalion, and before he could recover his senses, the two artillery battalions were completely scrapped, so how would the next battle be fought? What the hell is going on with these cavalry, just thinking about the artillery is too bad! Shameless!
However, now that the artillery battalion has been scrapped, it has lost the opportunity to take Richmond again, after all, the Union army in Richmond still has artillery to help, and without the cover of artillery, there is no way to approach the federal army at all!
However, withdraw the troops? Princeton was a little unwilling, he bowed for thirty-six days, and he was almost trembling, withdrawing his troops, just afraid that he would be scolded to death by his boss! It's just that if you don't retreat, launch another strong attack, brave the artillery of others, even if you can take Richmond, I'm afraid that you will be greatly injured, and if you don't make a good scene, you will have to be broken up!
When Princeton was hesitating, in the east, on the flank position of the Confederate army, there was a sudden chaos, and the artillery on the opposite side was thundering, and one shell after another flew to the flank position, blowing up the flank position beyond recognition!
Princeton was shocked and exclaimed, "What's the matter? What went wrong with the flank positions? ”
A staff officer hurriedly ran over and shouted: "General, the flank position has been hit by a strong blow from unknown militants, and the enemy's artillery fire is extremely fierce, causing us huge casualties!" ”
Princeton almost sat on the ground, wiped it, his artillery position had just been destroyed, and the artillery of others began to exert its might, the former, his two artillery battalions formed a complete suppression of Richmond, and now it is his turn to be unlucky, it is really feng shui in turn!
